IRON SOUP (SPINACH AND LENTIL WITH A PUNCH) RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Iron Soup (Spinach and Lentil With a Punch) Recipe - Food.com image

As an anemic, I try to keep my iron up by eating the right food, rather than supplementation. This soup is a variant on a basic spinach and red lentil soup (thanks, English_Rose!) with extra ingredients chosen for their high iron content. If you love Indian food, you'll love this soup! I happened to make it after having boiled a beet, so instead of vegetable stock, I used the water from the beet, which added a nice extra flavour. (NB: an iron-rich diet should be undertaken with advice from a professional.)

Total Time 40 minutes

Cook Time 25 minutes

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

1 cup frozen cauliflower
1 cup frozen broccoli
1 cup firm tofu, cubed
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon coriander
salt

Steps:

  • Add garlic, tomato paste, and cook, stirring, for about 30 seconds.
  • Add the stock/liquid and and lentils to the pan.
